It is possible, but it isn't done at the moment. We do not store the
data needed to generate such reports, but it could be done with the
data set we have at every given point in time.
But I would be reluctant to do it for the less used architectures, for
privacy reasons. The information we get from such analysis would be
too easy to associate with individual users (like the kfreebsd-amd64
porters for that arch. :).
And for those interested, here are the latest numbers:
2 0.00% i486
2 0.00% kfreebsd-amd64
3 0.01% hurd-i386
3 0.01% ppc64
8 0.02% armel
9 0.02% armeb
9 0.02% s390
11 0.02% m68k
11 0.02% kfreebsd-i386
20 0.04% mips
42 0.09% ia64
57 0.12% hppa
65 0.14% mipsel
68 0.14% alpha
223 0.47% sparc
598 1.25% powerpc
676 1.42% arm
5625 11.79% amd64
40283 84.42% i386
47715 100.00% total (ignored 229 without arch info)
